The plug-in will allow you to use timestamp tagging to tag your builds. I am sorry but I don't think you can access the timestamp property directly in the pom itself. Why do you need to do that anyway?

Thanks for the quick reply, but what does that do, exactly? In which property does it make the timestamp available? I tried ${timestamp} after adding that snippet to my pom, but it was empty. What am I missing?

You can use maven scm plugin: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <addTimestamp>true</addTimestamp> <tag>build</tag> <timestampFormat>yyyyMMddHHmm</timestampFormat> </configuration> </plugin> -----Original Message----- From: Crossley, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 06, 2007 3:57 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Can I get a timestamp? Do I really have to write an entire plugin just to make a timestamp available as a maven property? That's what Google is telling me, but I wanted to make sure before I went to all that trouble.
